The cam is different, and it's recommened that you swap out the 'M' on a boosted B230F for a 'T' or an aftermarket cam.

There's a guy who frequently posts to the Badbricks mailing list who has turbo'd his B230F. He runs in the neighborhood of 10psi which results in high 90's trap speeds in the 1/4 mile. You really should have an entire car to pull the engine and electrics from.

Another guy at the turbobricks message board is working on a turbo B23F, and a couple other frequent contributors have done similar projects with high compression B21FT's.
